Remember the Fortune Teller?

Like 8 years ago or so, there was a guy on here who would ask his fortune teller what was on the horizon for UH football. I think I remember the last prediction made was that UH would end up in the ACC?

I may be generalizing, but ALL fortune tellers are crooks, except Mrs. Cleo, she’s a national treasure

The fortune teller must have somehow confused us with SMU since that’s their upcoming destination. I do remember those threads though. They were entertaining if nothing else.

I remember the magic 8-ball wrapped in velvet & kept in the trunk of a 60s-era Plymouth Valiant with a slant-6 engine. You could ask it questions and its cryptic replies revealed the Coog’s future

The slant 6 with the magic orb contained within the trunk! Where is it?!

I had one of those Valiants. Good car … I think it was a '61 or '62. This was around 1978 and an office mate was complaining because it had been sitting in her garage for 2 years and her boys refused to drive it. I offered her $100 for it and she took it and then her boys complained about her selling it. I later “loaned” it to my brother-in-law and never saw it again.

I would be curious to see those predictions again. Just to see how everything that was predicted worked out.

It was CoogBoog and the answer was the B10.

That’s a beauty. I had a ‘75 Valiant. Damn thing was crashed. Another time caught on fire. I made many trips to the junkyard to fix it. It kept running. My wife actually was working to buy me one to fix up on my 50th birthday. I’m glad that didn’t happen.

He could still be right on big10 later if we get AAU which we will

Sir! Are you calling this gentleman a fraud and a con man? Gary Spivey takes a back seat to no other fortune teller, especially not that charlatan Miss Cleo!

My mother-in-law used to watch (and make fun of) this Walter Mercado dude on one of the Spanish language stations. That got old fast.

Not quite right…lol

Walter Mercado was something else. My mom used to watch him.

I bought a used Gold 1964 Plymouth Valiant with the slant 6. 220 and a pushbutton transmission.
Bought it in 1992….drove it to class everyday.

No matter where I stopped people would say where they saw me in Houston

Was looking at a convertible one for $19k. Love that old car.

I don’t think she said the ACC, she said UH in the same conference as Miami. That could happen if Miami left the ACC.

Well the jury, is still out on that prediction.

I had a buddy in Puerto Rico named, “Walter.”
It’s not an uncommon name there. He got so sick of people calling him “Walter Mercado” he became a Muy Thai expert. He used to beat the hell out of people in Santurce for calling him that.
